1Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the fresh cream and vanilla essence until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead it a few times until it comes together.
Pat the dough into a circle about 1 inch thick. Cut the dough into 8 wedges or use a round cutter to make individual scones.
Place the scones onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each one.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until the scones are golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly on a wire rack before serving. Enjoy your Vanilla Cream Scones!
